New tank (1 Viewer)

Old (but nice) tank is sold and gone. New Red Sea Reefer XXL 750 is in place!
Still need to aquascape. Everyone seems happy so far!
Was a lot of work but worth it!

Looks great!
How long has it been running?
What lights are you running?
I see you have MP40’s (60?), any issues getting them to stick through the 3/4” glass?

The tank is looking good.

It appears you have the exact same coffee table I have, except yours doesn't have the corners chewed off by a naughty dog.

Ha! We bought that and the end table new in 92. It’s back in “retro style” now. It’s also about to get a facelift with mocha stain.

Had it over 2 years. One of the first in Texas.

Lights are 8-bulb t5 with two 60” led bars: one reef brite and one sb with uv.

3 mp40’s so far. Need 1 more. Use the correct spacer and you’ll be fine.

I think we got ours in 2000 or 2001.

Between that, the old camera equipment and record albums, and of course reefing, we may be long-lost brothers. lol

Are they the QD or old W?
Mine are old (white controller). Only one spacer that turns for glass size up to 5/8” or no spacer for 3/4” glass

QD.

QD.

That’s why, the old ones like mine have a weaker magnet.

I see.

You’ll soon grow tired of filling that small, inaccessible top off tank. I ditched mine in favor of an 18g reservoir in the right side cabinet.

Yup, I have a spare tank I’m already planning on using. Although, my water jugs are 7 gal, and using a hose with jug on a step stool I was able to fill it easily. I’m thinking of ditching the float valve and just dripping kalk from the little tank. Then use a bigger tank for ATO duties.
